Hmmm IIRC the chinese actually manufactured some m1 carbines at one point.

I take solace in military tactics because they emphasize teamwork and working with others.
Some of the douchebaggery in this thread, especially about unrealistic calibres is worthy of a double face palm.

Confusion between the M1 Garand and the M1 Carbine .30, no doubt.
With tulammo almost being given away. I'd say make in 30 carbine. Even if non-restricted I would probably have to pass. These things make ruger anything look good and the 10/22 even better.
I haven't read all 9 pages, so maybe someone's mentioned this already. A US source (I think it was an NRA announcement) said that import of approx. 87,000 Garands and something like 700,000 m1 carbines has been given a big O.K. for import from South Korea back to the US.
The US Dept of State was against it, but was bypassed for reasons that I think had to do with them being "curios and relics".
Maybe some will make their way up here?
